ABS issues... Please help!
I was just driving home, down a hill on a curve, I tapped the brake at the bottom of the hill and started going up a hill. The ABS light came on and the rear passenger side wheel locked up. The car lost control a bit, and the sound of the tire dragging was obnoxious. I pulled over to the side of the road, on the hill. I launched the car to get it moving again. The ABS light was still on, and I think the back wheel started spinning, though not freely, so I limped the car the rest of the way home, with this horrible grinding noise coming from the back of the car. I hot home and jacked the car up. I then found that I have lost my lug wrench, and the other cars here don't have the same size lug bolt. The only thing I could see was a single new groove cut into the rotor, right at the bottom, closest to the hub. Anyone know what the heck just happened???? Thanks.

I know Silver Streakin had a problem with his ABS module shortly after delivery
but it locked ALL the wheels, and he couldn't move the car. He had it towed to the dealership to have the module replaced.
